I guess @Zoffiel why we believe it should be you is your indefatigable nature and irreverent personality makes us feel as if we are back in control of our lives rather than on some medical conveyor belt where friends and family tippytoe around us.I don’t know if our perceptions of you are always right as you too are human nor have I expressed well community attitude once a breast cancer diagnosis is given but hope you can read around my point.
Finally how about a chapter on supplements esp on the cautious side - @primek gave me a wonderful site to check if they conflict with our treatment .I’ve learnt Echinacea diminishes the benefits of Tamoxifen , and that Curcumin shouldn’t be taken during chemo to name a couple. I guess I’ve learnt to be careful with natural .. But I’ve also learnt from the ladies like @melclarity that Magnesium is wonderful for bones whilst on aromatase inhibitors.
